The lady sings the blues The last thing I remember Is that I felt somewhat weird Drinking too many Shirley’s and a guy who volunteered I woke up in this city With these red lights all alround Yes I felt somewhat ackward Like a cat who just drowned But I came to my senses And am still in a great shock From these Ladies in rubber Thought they were the Lobto-mob I found out I’m abducted By some guy from Amsterdam Who is running this cafe With a rubber doll madam I’m the latest attraction For some cheap beer drinking men In a dubious cafe Never saw a gentleman I do not know what happened All they told me I must sing Sing the blues from deep inside Which is easy.....I miss King ! So I sing of my lost love Of the times that have gone by When red crayons were drawing And One Flew Over could fly Of my Mother who hates me And Doc Moose out on his quest Of Justins in straitjackets And how our stew was the best At the end of the evening I make them cry all these sots But they always ask again To sing my song of Andrew Scott About the room with a view My Knight in shining armour The Ruler of the East Wing The most wanted bachelor And when the light are turned low The cafe in reddish hues With a yearning husky voice Lady in Red sings the Blues ~~~~~ In shining armour I see you before me my Crayon Knight With all my heart I yearn for thee Your words pure melody of love’s delight My life’s true symphony Crystal tears of felicity Your embrace a sweet caress serenity Our dreamship cruises the stars inevitable destiny Crayon Knight my love, you are I’m flying without wings Kindred spirit my one and only Crayon King ~~~~~~~ When the music finally ends And these grown men wipe their eyes Standing here on stage alone That’s when I break down and cry Where are my fellow ‘Stuters ? Will I see my King again ? Lady in Red sang the blues Please don’t leave me here in vain Oh my goodness ! I am AmsterDAMNED ! Lady in Red Juliet Romeo, Romeo, where fart art thou |

Thank you Eloise. I'm glad it made somebody smile, because the Lady really feels blue, as she misses the red crayon hues. ~Juliet Romeo, Romeo, where fart art thou |

This is fantastic! I haven't visited this site or written anything for a long time now and I've come back here to a top notch poem. You have inspried me to keep writing - thank you! Why do you feel so blue? You can touch people in a great way, surely that's something to be pleased about? The tragedy of it is that nobody sees the look of desperation on my face. Thousands and thousands of us, and we're passing one another without a look of recognition. |

My dearest daughter Juliet I'll be there soon we'll be a duet singing together will be no sweat so relax my dear don't you fret. I wondered where you went off to but without your crayon king you seemed blue, drinking with your new buddy ONE FLEW as you waited for sweet Andrew. |

Nurse Crachet, Doc Moose, Justin Nuendo ! I am so happy to see you all here ! I'll wait a little longer to see if Andrew will drop by. As soon as he does we will follow you to the 'Stute. I want to go home ! Lady in Red ~Juliet Crayon King, Ruler of East Wing, where fart art thou ? Romeo, Romeo, where fart art thou |

My God that was a part of the soul. I loved it beyond expression. Down to the guts of deep simplicity you went with this, bless the setting and the reality. |

My dearest Juliet I'm detained at the moment. Problems at the Stute need my attention. Hold the men off till I get there then we'll blow them away. |

Lady, I'm here to blink you back. The Stute's your home so hold on I'll have you here in a jiffy. Oh dear, where are you? I blinked you back to the Stute but your not here. Don't worry I'll get help for you, Doc Moose is the smart one I'll get him to help. We'll find you or give us a message and I'll get it right next time.

Last I recall we were havin' 'Stute fun Near a place called Area Fifty-one I, Crayon King was shakin' the mix Stirrin' the gin with paraffin sticks While Lady in Red was by my side She, snug as a bug in Moose's ride Good Doctor Moose was mad at the wheel He made the motor race, the tires squeal And Jeannie his Jinn, a green eyed cat Drunk with slurred purrs, in the side seat sat Nurse C was groovin' with Chip n' Dale Those two Vegas dudes who danced real swell E. Fudd the Spud was huntin' big game Lil' men from Mars I think was his aim The Justin Crew was also there Rhyme and Kase, Innuendo fair And I do believe was One Flew Over With Ian pet European dog rover Now if I forgot anyone Chalk it up to too much hot sun To a bad mix of Rico Rum And a little green man's ray gun How I got pulled from Moose's car I know not, but I'll tell you this Aboard that alien space craft They all look a lot like Elvis To the stars and back… not this trip Seems equilibrium's a must And Martian pilots can't just sip For One-Fifty-One they do lust I'm not sure what went down Nor what went up and to the sides But roller coasters got nothing on Drunken Martian spaceship rides Next I knew we were Terra bound Skipping off lands Green, Ice, and Eng Across the channel we did ground Near Amsterdam our final fling Elvis and I are now on the road Trying to get back to the 'Stute But first we must check out the sounds And have a drink of Absolute Opening the door to the Blue Light Café… The Crayon King and Elvis enter the building.

My goodness Jinn ! Where did I go ! There’s no light here, just a red glow! What do I feel there on the floor ? It looks like a hidden trapdoor ! I carefully open the hatch These stairs look as if I’m on a ledge Should I take off my red high heels ? Oh my, this depth does make me reel Barefeet I walk down through the dust The creaking steps cry out: injust ! Wrapped in a shroud of mystery I walk towards my destiny....... Right there ! A door in front of me ! Quietly open it and see........ Ha ha ! I really got you Jinn ! ‘Cause that is not where I have been ! I’m sorry, couldn’t help it Jinn Forgive Lady this little sin ? Instead I’ve been up on this joist As if I really had a choice Your magic sent me up the air And here I sit with Lady flair Looking at all these drunken men Waiting for their "delicatessen" Drooling over their lukewarm drinks Giving every waitress a blink What is this squeaky sound I hear ! This beam won’t hold my weight I fear ! I’m falling ! Landing on my rear ! Oh no ! There come the volunteers ! I hear the front door opening And look right up to see straight in..... The eyes of my beloved Crayon King ! To be continued ???? Lady in Red ~Juliet~ < !signature--> Romeo, Romeo, where fart art thou Dear ethome, thank you for your kind reply my dear and I'm glad you enjoyed our litlle game [This message has been edited by Lady in Red (edited 06-11-2000).] |
